Jack Cook – Mastering the Art of Trial Storytelling


Listen Later

“Like I always tell my staff: Be right, be wrong, be slow, be fast. But for goodness’ sake, don't be boring. That is what's unforgivable to that jury.” From magic, to the Marines, to medical malpractice, Jack Cook’s life has certainly never been boring. 

On this episode of Trial Lawyers University, Dan Ambrose speaks with Jack Cook, a partner at Morgan & Morgan specializing in birth injury litigation. Dan and Jack discuss the importance of storytelling as a trial lawyer, why the burden of proof should never be overlooked, and the invaluable skill of being prepared.
